I believe they need a free account to collab on a shared proton doc.

The article linked talks mostly about sharing a file or folder. Seems you can share direct via email but they need to sign up for a free account atill.

Normal files have a link generator next to the file or folder so you can generate link, and you can copy the link to anyone for download only purposes

Meanwhile Microsoft; how can we bog down this OS even more?

Didn't notice 10 Million payout? Meanwhile when CRA makes a mistake on their end and overpays my return by $100, they find the error in about 3 months and want it back with interest.

Sounds like you want to live in the USA ;)

Metro Vancouver is by no means on par with Europe, lots of fraser valley sprawl, that is slowly being developed to be higher density, but transit is not too bad. The bus and skytrain are linked so I can travel 45km to work in 1.5 to 2 hours depending on which method I choose, while taking the car to work can be 1.25 to 1.5 hours due to traffic. New skytrain lines are being extended outward also.

They are bound by USA sanction law, moving to another NATO country would be same sanctions against Russia

Thats fair. If you ever go back then at cli typing tracker3 will give a list of commands.

Tracker3 status will give you what it is doing or if it is idle, and notes on files that are troublesome.

tracker3 reset with cetain flags will purge and rebuild index.

You can also set filetypes and folders to index, but that is probably eaaier in dconf-editor settings, under org/freedesktop/tracker/mine/files

Easy to force a tracker reset, or enable disable. Or even reinstall. Seems easier than findinf a new DE no?

Also tracker ahould not be using up so much diskIO or CPU like people mention, if it is it is tripping up on a files internal data, and status/logs will show which file(s)

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 weeks ago

Tracker should not be recrawling everything, unless you delete the index with a tracker3 reset

Once it builds the initial index only new files or changed files should be recrawled for meta data.

The only time I have seen Tracker use cpu was when it got hung up on a file that had special code in it that was messing with parsing the data and so it would fail and retry over and over.

When I was on reddit the ones spouting the most linux hate seemed to fall into two main categories.

  1. those that tried it like 15 years ago and still hold a grudge.

  2. dudes who heard people rave about linux but they themselves struggled with certain concepts when trying it out. And rather than realize they need to read instructions and learn new things, instead would rather blame linux for not working as expected.

There is a guy that is a Linux dev, that maintains* a list of what sucks about linux, its very comprehensive--but a bit dated. He alao has same for Windows. I will have to look for the link
